1380065 2014-07-30 11:10:00 In that case, telescum is out. I am not going to bother with it. It was only ever going to be slot 2, and that under protest :)

Whew.

1380070 2014-07-30 21:53:00 Vodafone may do as they please, I hereby graciously award them the privilege of turning off (or on) what, where and when they fancy it. :p R2x1 (4628)
1380071 2014-07-31 09:47:00 So this phone is 5 diagonal inches? It sounds like a great choice but a phone that size - how do you carry it? Seems a bit big for a shirt pocket and much too big for a trouser pocket. But I've never tried a large phone so maybe I'm wrong. Winston001 (3612)
1380072 2014-07-31 11:59:00 I have a phone with a 5" screen and have no issue with keeping it in the pockets of my jeans. If I leave it in jacket pockets it will fall out sometimes but most of the time I don't have an issue with it. icow (15313)
1380073 2014-07-31 13:48:00 The size is initially a bit daunting, but after a couple of days it wll amazingly shrink to normal size. The older phone meanwhile has dwindled to the point of being beyond serious consideration. In a week, more of the same. Screen size is addictive. The 5" phones do fit in a shirt pocket, strangely, they fit better than smaller phones, (microphones? ;))which rattle about in the pocket alarmingly. Like going from dial-up to broadband, once you have sampled the new, going back is quite unappealing. R2x1 (4628)
